We are delighted to confirm that there will be a BPA Scottish group exhibition once again this year. We are remaining at last year’s venue of Dewars Centre, Perth and the date of the event is 24th October 2012.
This event will provide an excellent opportunity for parking professionals to see the latest developments in the sector, network and enjoy some great Scottish hospitality.
This is a must attend event for anyone involved in parking and traffic management which is accessible for those based in Scotland, Northern Ireland and the north of England. Our Scottish group officers are looking forward to extending a warm welcome to everyone.
If you would like to attend as a delegate, please book your place here (or via the link above). You can also send your apologies.

Seminar programme
We will be organising a series of short seminar sessions throughout the day of the event rather than holding one continuous meeting, this will enable visitors to decide which topics are of interest, giving them greater opportunity to visit the stands throughout the day. Here are some confirmed topics:
Parking Policy in Scotland – come and hear the latest updates from the Scottish government
Parking Power Hour – a fast paced session of back to back five minute power pitches from the exhibitors, find out about the latest in product and service developments in parking and see whether the speakers can beat the bell!
Parking and Communities – how can parking services benefit the community and contribute to the future prosperity of Scotland’s towns and cities?
Skills for Scotland – find out about the development of a Skills Strategy for Scotland, the Parking Academy and continuing professional development
